Optical microscopy has long served as a fundamental tool in the visualisation of intricate structures across biological, materials and industrial research. Recent advancements in metrology techniques ...

Fluorescence microscopy reveals cellular morphology and dynamics in remarkable detail, but achieving clear visualization at fast acquisition rates remains a challenge. A fundamental trade-off between ...

Researchers at Technion, Israel Institute of Technology, have directly tracked “dark points” in light waves, spots where the ...

Micro- and nanofluidic systems are increasingly important in biology, medicine, chemistry, and materials science because they allow researchers to study reactions, transport, and molecular behavior in ...

Researchers have developed a new method for pancreatic cancer phenotyping using label-free optical microscopy coupled with a deep learning artificial intelligence algorithm. Using this approach, it ...

Researchers have developed a new microscope that can visualize the optical response of surfaces at an unprecedented spatial resolution of one nanometer. This paves the way for optical microscopy of ...

A new plasmonic fiber probe uses linearly polarized light and energy recycling for broadband nanofocusing with resolution ...

Scientists have developed a groundbreaking cryo-optical microscopy technique that freezes living cells mid-action, capturing ultra-detailed snapshots of fast biological processes. By rapidly ...

It’s relatively easy to understand how optical microscopes work at low magnifications: one lens magnifies an image, the next magnifies the already-magnified image, and so on until it reaches the eye ...

Microscopy is an imaging technique that enables us to see a world that would otherwise be invisible to us. Once upon a time, visualizing cells, microbes and other entities not perceptible to the naked ...
